Manet: A Visionary Impressionist

The history of Impressionism could not be written without him, but Edouard Manet’s art is scarcely representative of the style. His work was modern and singular, provocative and challenging, and easily distinguished from his contemporaries. Manet was primarily a figure painter, fascinated with urban life, and never painted a landscape purely for its own sake. The life and work of this maverick Impressionist’s work is presented here in a glorious portfolio featuring 139 full-color reproductions.
